South Island Wilderness Retreats

To create an unforgettable wilderness experience, we have partnered with exquisite luxury retreats around the South Island.

Salt + Earth sits near the shores of Lake Te Anau, surrounded by the peaks of Fiordland. The owner of this intimate luxury lodge invites you to share in the life of a Kiwi outdoorsman, with experiences ranging from helicopter tours to hunting and fishing.

A luxury Milford Sound overnight cruise aboard the Fiordland Jewel offers the chance to see this Fiordland icon at its most beguiling. View the sunset and sunrise over Milford Sound and soak on the deck-top hot pool as night falls.
